Thanks to all who participated, I've been really busy at of late, which is why I didn't get around to voting in the last battle. Septic Flesh was clearly a cut above though and thankfully the voting...

Agreed. And not in a good way either. Like with a Neurosis, Isis, or Rosetta record, I can lose myself in the music and kind of take in the whole album as one, unified, aural experience. Not the case...

I was also underwhelmed by the Hollenthon album; overrated as hell in my book. It just pales in comparison to The Great Mass, which has overwhelmingly done the best in incorporating symphonic...

I can really see this argument but I can't help but play devil's advocate on behalf of Fleshgod. To me, they are the better band as a whole, and while their symphonic elements don't necessarily...

I get that, but you'd think folks would want to expand a little. With services like MOG and Spotify I don't think acquiring the records is too hard. I suppose finding the time could be another issue...

I have only listened to the one album but I have read that Mirrorthrone has improved upon his formula with each album, so Gangrene very may well be a drastic improvement from Carriers of Dust.

Alright, looks like this battle needs a jumpstart, and since I chose the albums I'll do the first honors.

I put these two albums up first because I found them to be the weakest of the bunch, as is...

Agreed, many thanks for exposing me to Harvey Milk! (that sounds quite odd when put in a different context)

I throughly enjoyed both albums but for different reasons. Sure, Acid Bath might be more dynamic as the album shifts from extreme metal, to sludge, to almost post-grunge (in the best possible way) at...

I hadn't heard of Harvey Milk prior to the battle but kudos to James for tossing them into the ring, I loved what I heard. Sure Eyehategod's riffs are immense and epic, with sublime moments of blues...

Really all that needs to be said has already been said. What it boils down to, in my opinion, is that Blackwater Park has achieved classic status and The Way... has not.

Opeth - 5
Gojira - 2

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Tomas Haake's chops yet, dude's like a ****ing legend. Pretty sure a whole drum software sample library is either modeled after him or taken directly from him.

This was a difficult choice for as both records are progressive for different reasons. For me Obzen is a good album that has some amazing moments (my favorite being the opening riff on "Lethargica")...

Let's end the slaughter,

The next match up is Enslaved (most likely) and Gojira, right? Now THAT'S a matchup

Enslaved - 5

I enjoy both bands and both of these albums, however they both have some glaring flaws. Sybreed's use of djent, prog, and industrial works only about half the time and sometimes they get way too...

Yeah I'm not as chubby on Converge as most, don't get me wrong, they're alright but I don't think they're god's gift to hardcore metal. If not from hardcore, where does grindcore (in its purest...
